LAWRENCE, MA and HYANNIS, MA, January 22, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Drasko Simovic, MD, a nationally respected neurologist and clinical neurophysiologist, has been named a 2026 Castle Connolly Top Doctor, marking his 13th consecutive year receiving this prestigious distinction. Fewer than 7 percent of licensed physicians nationwide are selected annually, placing Dr. Simovic among an elite group recognized for clinical excellence and peer respect.

Dr. Simovic is the founder and director of EMG Laboratory, a premier neuromuscular diagnostic practice he established in 1997. With locations in Lawrence and Hyannis, Massachusetts, EMG Laboratory is widely regarded for its commitment to advanced neurodiagnostics, precision medicine, and patient-centered care. The practice has earned the highest level of recognition from the American Association of Neuromuscular & Electrodiagnostic Medicine (AANEM)—Accreditation with Exemplary Status—along with numerous professional and consumer honors.

A leader in the field of neuromuscular diagnostics, Dr. Simovic integrates nerve conduction studies (NCS), electromyography (EMG), and neuromuscular ultrasound to assess the structure and function of muscles and nerves with exceptional accuracy. This comprehensive approach enables precise diagnosis and monitoring of a broad spectrum of conditions, including neck and back pain, nerve root injuries, sciatica, peripheral neuropathy, carpal tunnel syndrome, Guillain-Barré syndrome, and complex neuromuscular diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

"The combination of EMG and nerve conduction studies with neuromuscular ultrasound allows us to determine whether nerves and muscles are functioning properly and to define the severity and nature of disease," Dr. Simovic explains. "This level of detail helps guide the most appropriate and effective treatment for each patient."

He further notes that combining ultrasound with electromyography uniquely bridges anatomy and physiology. "By fusing structural imaging with functional assessment, we significantly enhance diagnostic precision—particularly in focal nerve entrapments and traumatic nerve injuries—leading to more personalized and effective treatment plans."

Dr. Simovic is board certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology in Neurology and Clinical Neurophysiology, the American Board of Electrodiagnostic Medicine in EMG and Neuromuscular Ultrasound, and the American Board of Disability Analysts. He earned his medical degree from the University of Belgrade Medical School, completed his neurology residency at Boston Medical Center/Boston University, and pursued advanced fellowship training in clinical neurophysiology and electrodiagnostic medicine at St. Elizabeth's Medical Center/Tufts University.

In addition to his clinical work, Dr. Simovic serves as an Assistant Professor of Neurology at Tufts University School of Medicine. His clinical and research contributions have been featured in prominent national and international media, including the Boston Globe, Boston Herald, Popular Science, and Reuters Health.

Top Doctors are nominated by peer physicians and selected by the physician-led Castle Connolly research team.
